Reading up on all the birthday wishes you folks left for me reminded me that my youngest daughter gave me the latest Willie Nelson album for my birthday. From the onset of the first song I thought he sounded kind of old...then I looked up the album. "A Beautiful Time" is the 72nd solo studio album by Willie Nelson, released on April 29, 2022 on his 89th birthday.! I thought that was the coolest thing ever! Do any other musicians have an album released at age 89? To add to that novelty, it's really good. There's a unique beauty to the sound of an 89 year Willie Nelson's voice. It's easy enough to embrace and just go with flow of the whole album. Lots of pearls of wisdom strewn across the album, as only a seasoned grizzled musician could portray them. Willie's guitar "Trigger", just sounds cooler and cooler is it ages, and he still plays it really well. (It has an extra hole in it from years of heavy handed strumming, and it gives it an interesting sound.) Just thought I'd share.
